Kumbo diocese Justice and Peace commission organizes a peaceful march
The Northwest Region of our country Cameroon has been identified as the most vulnerable to human trafficking, mostly women and girls. A huge turnout marched to the office of the Senior District Officer and presented him with a petition for the Cameroonian Government for intervention. Many signatures were gathered in support of the fight against this inhuman act. In the schools and in various other venues in the area, the Diocesan Commission is working very hard, Along with our Justice and Peace Commission, NGOs are formulating development plans to alleviate poverty, lack of job opportunities and to better the economy. Testimonies over our National Radio Station on the situation and exploitation of our women and girls taken to Kuwait or other Middle East countries served as a wake call up for many people. Sister Lucie Mekoulou Me-Zambo is an active staff member of the Justice and Peace Commission. Sister Cathy Molloy and I participated in the march.
